After having a friend taste the cake, we discussed ideas to enhance it. She suggested using a recipe for "Gateau de Savoie", so I've started researching some recipes.
In the meantime, ideas for this cake were to combine with a fruit filling (strawberries seem to be the most popular). Liquor, espresso/coffee, lemon zest... could also be added to the batter.
What I did today was cut the left over cake (half of it) in half and put some jam/preserves (raspberry and apricot). It does taste wonderful.

The cake was a bit dry this morning, so I looked at ways to preserve cakes (seems like my cake cover is not airtight) and found this website. I'm also trying to figure out if I can make the cake a bit more moist. I think next time, I'll add more milk (maybe 150ml instead of 125ml). As always, ideas, suggestions and comments are welcome.

Here is the recipe I used for this cake (in French).
